    Thanks john but I have already used that. Stole the idea off a F Class Champ from Te Puke (you can probably guess who) but his method was to paint the mixture inside the necks using a small brass.
    I'll try your dunking method.

    Coincidentally, I just purchased a new bottle of isopropal alcohol today from Jaycar.
